Every time I see you in the world
You always step to my girlBack back way back
I used to front like Angkor Wat,
Mechanicsburg, Anchorage, and Darus SalaamWhile home in New York
Was champagne and disco tapes
From L.A. slash San FranciscoBut actually Oakland and not Alameda
Your girl was in Berkeley with her communist reader
Mine was entombed within boombox and walkman
I was a hoarder but girl that was back thenThe gloves are off
The wisdom teeth are out
What you on about?
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bonesI'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it aloneEvery time I see you in the world
You always step to my girlAncestors told me
That their girl was better
She's richer than Croesus
She's tougher than leatherI just ignored all the tales of a past life
Stale conversation deserves but a bread knife
And punks who would laugh
When they saw us together
Well they didn't know
How to dress for the weather
I can still see them there huddled on Astor
Snow falling slow to the sound of the masterThe gloves are off
The wisdom teeth are out
What you on about?
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bonesI'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it aloneWisdom's a gift
But you'd trade it for youth
Age is an honor
It's still not the truth
We saw the stars when they hid from the world
You cursed the sun when it stepped to your girl
Maybe she's gone and I can't resurrect her
The truth is she doesn't need me to protect her
We know the true death
The true way of our flesh
Everyones dying but girl you're not old yetThe gloves are off
The wisdom teeth are out
What you on about?
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bonesI'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it aloneThe gloves are off
The wisdom teeth are out
What you on about?
I feel it in my bones
I feel it in my bonesI'm stronger now
I'm ready for the house
Such a modest mouse
I can't do it alone
I can't do it aloneEvery time I see you in the world
You always step to my girl
